I'd say do a chargeback at this point. You've long fulfilled any moral obligation to do things "politely".

There was this update later (as of Jan 29): Which realistically gives another 2 weeks minimum before things start shipping.

There was an update last night on this case's status:

I think this ended up being a good compromise between all the different asks. It's bigger, yes, but that was necessary for flexATX support anyway, and I like how half height card support was added in with minimal overhead. That should be handy to cover some uses not quite handled by integrated...

So, I've been giving some thought to this case, and I think it would be quite useful to have a USB port either on the front, or built into the side of the case. The Densium 4 USB-C cutouts look quite unobtrusive, imo, and there's a lot of utility to being about to plug in IO without digging...

If we can forgo bottom case fans, it should work out reasonably well without any huge increase in volume. If anything, I think the Ncase design is a bit more resilient to these changes than other layouts.

It might be worth running a survey to see what people are interested in the case for. Seems to be a split between people who want a pure APU build for a family computer or HTPC, and those who're looking for a slightly more expandable setup for a server, homelab, etc. But obviously there're some...

So, I really like the dimensions, and I think the HDPLEX is the perfect fit for this class of device. 250W is realistically plenty for whatever you'd fit in there, and since the half decent flex ATX units seem to start at around 350W, they'd be not just a waste of space and fan noise, but...

@Densium.net, is there any update on the APU version of the case? Or is that on the back burner for now?

Pardon the delayed reply, but I haven't been following closely lately. I do think it should have been included for T1-Sandwich customers, as originally stated, but it was indeed the T1-REF customers that I thought would be the most impacted. Easy to imagine people using a side AIO, or just...

So the post on Reddit, that has continually been referenced as an official source of info, was replaced without notification on Reddit, and you seriously think a separate Discord chat counts as an alternative? At best, you've established that the change was obfuscated, but it's a distinction...

It's not a "clarification" to silent edit the document that you've been telling people represents the specs for the shipping product. It's not like that info was on the website either.

Wow, that's quite misleading if they changed it without telling anyone.

I feel like it's not worth sacrificing cooler hight for the APU configuration, if I'm reading your comment correctly. Too niche vs full APU.

Also curious about the APU version. How much CPU cooler clearance would that net?
